The High Court has dismissed a petition challenging the constitutionality of the 1.5 percent Affordable Housing levy on claims it amounted to double taxation and discrimination. In a decision made by a three-judge panel, including Justices Olga Sewe, John Chigiti, and Josephine Mong'are, the court dismissed a petition by Busia Senator Okiya Omtatah, activist Eliud Matindi, and the Katiba Institute, saying the levy was valid and aligns with constitutional provisions.
